CoorsTek can engineer precision Cerbec® Balls with a diameter range of .5 mm to 50 mm. You will find them in applications that range from micro bearings in dental drills to large wind turbines.
Cerbec® silicon nitride balls outperform steel balls due to the material properties and finishing that maximize the benefits of using ceramics. These attributes are valuable in applications where steel balls degrade rapidly or where electrical insulation is a necessity.
Cerbec® balls are manufactured out of CoorsTek silicon nitride. This tough ceramic material has unique properties that outperform traditional steel alloys
58% lighter then steel
121% harder
68% stiffer
76% lower thermal expansion
Electrically resistant
Corrosion resistant
Finish
They produce balls with exceptionally tight tolerances and smooth surfaces. This allows them to improve overall performance.
Decreased friction
Lower lubrication required
Reduced wear
Elimination of vibration
The combination of superior material and finish deliver better overall service life, reduced operating costs, higher reliability and longer part life than traditional steel balls.
